In this special episode, Kieren and Riku explore public perceptions of AI by speaking directly to members of the public at Bristol's interactive science venue, We The Curious. From children imagining whimsical AI creations like flying pets and homework helpers to adults expressing genuine concerns about job security, education, and the environment. Join them as they share live recordings and discuss how these individual views align with recent large-scale surveys on AI sentiment. Discover what excites and worries people most about AI, how it impacts daily life, and why education about AI is becoming increasingly essential.
